I’m letting it rest for the night and then I’m planning on trying the finished product tomorrow. I did try a sample prior to smoking and it was delicious. So, it can only get better with some smoke! I will post a cross-section pic.

Pivodog That recipe sounds interesting and the sausage looks great.
German Beef Sausage covers a lot of territory. Is there a sausage type/style that it compare it to?

[Pivodog]

Good question, It’s called Rindswurst and I believe that it’s from Frankfurt.

Here is the official photo other than the air bubbles it turned out very nice!

Pivodog those look great. Im not sure how to eliminate air bubbles when using a bowl cutter. The last time i ate a commercial hot dog i took a close look at the texture & noticed it had some air bubbles also.

Commercial bowl choppers operate under a vacuum during at least part of the chop cycle. I don’t think eliminating air bubbles is the main reason but it would be one of the side benefits.

A vacuum stuffer would probably fix it. Dang, not another toy!!! LOL
